+1 for sandbox (non-binding)

Its slightly hard to imagine anything otherwise, but maybe I'm just
used to seeing how commons and taglibs work. If Taglibs join, we have
a bunch of Taglibs in sandbox, they will need to be housed somewhere,
and I don't see them migrating to commons sandbox ;-) Right?


Yes, +1 to a sandbox. Although it can create issues, I think has more 
benefits than downsides.

I would love to see a very light weight WebDAV servlet which could be
taken from Tomcat.

This should be discussed on commons-dev if people really think it is an 
issue.  Maintaining scope boundaries and quality is a key concern there 
(as it should be in the proposed project as well, IMHO), but *many* 
patches do get applied.




What is the general feeling in terms of where the code comprising this 
package will come from?  At least, the largest portion of it?


The majority of the code should be developed collaboratively by the 
community, using the mailing list, Wiki, svn and issue tracker (Bugzilla 
or Jira) to discuss ideas and manage patches.  Any significant 
contribution that is not developed within apache would have to go 
through the incubator before being integrated.

sandbox or will neophyte components start in the jakarta commons
sandbox?


I would not recommend reusing the j-c sandbox and I am not sure that I 
like the "start components in the sandbox" approach that we use there. 
Too many abandoned components that people start to use (and depend on) 
despite disclaimers.  With the ease of branching in svn, I am not sure 
if a sandbox is really needed any more.  In any case, I would not 
recommend repeating the j-c practice of "incubating" new subprojects in 
the sandbox.  Just my HO.

Just looking within Jakarta, the following all jump out as initial code:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/commons/sandbox/servlet/ has a 
couple of classes (as you know :) ).


Taglibs of course, I estimate half a dozen to ten taglibs.

Commons FileUploa.

Commons Http 
(http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/commons/sandbox/http/trunk/src/java/org/apache/commons/http/) 
which contains a browser detector class.


Commons Filters.

+1 for sandbox (non-binding)

Its slightly hard to imagine anything otherwise, but maybe I'm just
used to seeing how commons and taglibs work. If Taglibs join, we have
a bunch of Taglibs in sandbox, they will need to be housed somewhere,
and I don't see them migrating to commons sandbox ;-) Right?
